It uses a network port to create a connection session between the server that listens on the chosen port and the client which sends the SSH connection request on that port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-gain-access-your-database-remotely-througn-an-ssh-tunnel.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38244\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-gain-access-your-database-remotely-througn-an-ssh-tunnel.png 225w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-gain-access-your-database-remotely-througn-an-ssh-tunnel-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this protocol, we can manage our servers and work on them remotely. For example, we can add\/edit\/delete the services running on the server using an SSH client like PuTTY or Terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>SSH tunneling is also known as SSH port forwarding, which means we can route our traffic through SSH secure connection. It allows us to use the established SSH connection to set up a new &#8220;secure&#8221; connection from your computer to the remote server. There are three types of SSH port forwarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Local Port Forwarding<\/li><li>Remote Port Forwarding<\/li><li>Dynamic Port Forwarding<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>By default, MySQL or PostgreSQL server only listens on localhost which means it can only be accessed by other applications hosted on the same server. To connect remotely to the server, we need to make MySQL or PostgreSQL listen not only on localhost, we would also need to add or edit the database user&#8217;s permission to be able to connect remotely, modify the firewall, etc. For some people, this would take time and they would use SSH tunneling instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this tutorial, we will show you how to connect to a MySQL server through SSH tunneling, or local port forwarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-prerequisites\">Prerequisites:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SSH Client<br>SSH login credentials<br>MySQL client<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-create-ssh-tunnel-and-connect-to-the-database-server-from-windows\">Create SSH Tunnel and Connect to the Database Server from Windows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To connect to your server where the MySQL server is hosted, you will need an SSH client. If you use Windows as your computer&#8217;s operating system, you can use a free software called PuTTY to connect to your server. You can download PuTTY from <code>https:\/\/www.chiark.greenend.org.uk\/~sgtatham\/putty\/latest.html<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once downloaded, run the application and enter the following information:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host Name (or IP address) \u2013 enter your server hostname or its IP address.<br>Port \u2013 enter the listening port of your server\u2019s SSH daemon<br>Connection type \u2013 SSH<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"452\" height=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-access-your-database-remotely-through-an-ssh-tunnel.png\" alt=\"how to access your database remotely through an ssh tunnel\" class=\"wp-image-38231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-access-your-database-remotely-through-an-ssh-tunnel.png 452w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-access-your-database-remotely-through-an-ssh-tunnel-300x293.png 300w, https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/how-to-access-your-database-remotely-through-an-ssh-tunnel-150x146.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 452px) 100vw, 452px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the left side navigation tree in PuTTY, click on Connection &gt; SSH &gt; Tunnels.
